Alone

You are my everything.
I raised you.

Don't believe you
can do this alone
because we both know
it isn't necessary
even if it's possible.

Dark spaces No light.
A vacuum wherein hope cannot remain
leaving you empty with
your feelings.

You are not alone.

Where Are You Now?

I looked for you today.
You were supposed to come rescue me--
save me from myself, but you
were nowhere to be found.

I looked and looked and
you didn't come.

I trusted you...

What am I supposed to do now? Falling in love with you was so easy, I hardly even noticed it happening. You laughed at my jokes and returned all of my phone calls. It made so much sense for us to be together. Then you left. Now what? I keep going to my phone to tell you about my day only to put it back down and walk away. It shouldn't be like this. It wasn't supposed to end this way.

Are you coming back?
